Task
9.0.2.9. Work with the project coach
Recommended
The subject matter expert on the process and standards, designated by the council or district. Meets the Scout after the proposal is approved and before the plan is written, asks how the Scout will plan it, flags what could stop work or create a safety issue, reviews the plan for strengths, weaknesses and risks, and helps prepare for the board of review.
Notes and warnings
Tip. It is advisable that one of the meetings with the coach happen after the plan is prepared and before actual work begins. That is the meeting where a problem is still cheap to fix.
